We are able to change this reality and transform the language of blood to a language of dialogue and peace"

(Mahmoud al Fiat, a member of the Tel Aviv-Tulkarm group)

"Between the pain of those who have gone and the fear of those who may yet pay with their lives, we come together to say enough pain and enough war, and stress that peace is the only solution to stop the killing"

(Muhannad Najjar, Combatants for Peace, Memorial Day Ceremony in 2014)

Theater of the Oppressed has no end, because everything which happens in it must extend into life…

(Augusto Boal)

There is a partner for peace on the other side

The occupation is not a mere narration.

The occupation is a day-to-day reality on the ground - on the lives of Palestinians and their property.
